Do you like reading physical books or reading books online better? Why?
I would very happily switch to an ereader if it weren't so screwed up. A book I can buy anywhere and read anywhere, I can't do that with an ereader. I have to choose one and then I'm limited to books for that device only. Even then I'm screwed. If I buy a Kindle, there are books available on Amazon UK (and not available on Amazon US) that I can't buy for my US Kindle. It's absurd.

No, it's because they *are* god when it comes to your health care and they don't like it when you question their omniscience.
Answer to:
I am seperated from my wife. I have one of our vehicles but it is registered in her name. Can this vehicle be considered stolen?
No. If she tried to report it as stolen and told the truth when the police asked her about the circumstances, they wouldn't write it up as stolen. It's the same if I borrow someone's car and take off for parts unknown, they can't report it as stolen because they loaned it to me. Of course, if I stay gone long enough, they could get me for misappropriation of property or something.
Answer to:

How's the next stage of Evolution decided in Nature, without human meddling of course? What do you think...?"
Evolution is essentially a crap shoot. The variables involved can't even be enumerated, so prediction is out of the question. You could guess, but one guess is as likely or unlikely as the next. And you can't exclude human meddling, since it's part and parcel of the whole game. Species have been affecting their own and others evolution since the game began.

And basketball is, of course, our own; though invented by a Canadian, he did it in New England.

there is no way to tell that you should have an else there, setting current back to temp if the value it got from next() was wrong.

As a result both last and current are set to the wrong values.

The return stroke of a lightning bolt follows a charge channel about a centimetre (0.4-in) wide.
The current flowing in this channel heats the surrounding air to 20,000 degrees C., about three times the surface of the Sun, which produces the light you see. This compresses the surrounding clear air and creates a supersonic shock wave which decays to an acoustic wave that is heard as thunder.

Why don"t they put alcohol in a pill form. One shots worth of alcohol in one pill? No taste no smell!!
The alcohol you drink is actually ethanol. I'm no chemist, but I'm not even sure it would be possible to put it into a pill form. But it's a truly bad idea. With no feedback, overdosing would be extremely easy and people would be killing themselves right and left. Besides, with drinkers, drinking is part and parcel of the whole deal.

HasntBeen makes a good point, but it may also just be a symptom of withdrawal. I'm normally an easy going guy, drinking or not, and when I quit I became short-tempered for a few weeks. I would get angry at little annoyances that wouldn't have bothered me before, and that do not now bother me.

Answer to:
I have a computer that only has 512 mb of RAM, would I be able to play a game that required 1GB of RAM(Sims 3)? Would it simply run at half speed?
Not necessarily at half speed, but the computer would have to use the disk as virtual memory, which would slow it down considerably as it would be constantly swapping memory with the disk. I used to run Flight Simulator with 256M. Some flights ran okay, others it was like watching a video over the internet with a slower connection, with the constant freezes.
